Legislative Branch
The legislative branch is a part of the government responsible for creating laws. It's like the rule-making committee in a game, but instead of game rules, they make the laws everyone in the country needs to follow. In the U.S., this branch includes Congress, which is split into two groups: the House of Representatives, related to a state's population, and the Senate, with two senators per state. They discuss, argue about, and finally vote on new laws. Without them, we wouldn't have formal rules for society.

The legislative branch is one of the three branches of government, responsible for making laws. In the United States, it consists of two parts: the Senate and the House of Representatives, collectively known as Congress. Senators and Representatives create, debate, and vote on legislation that affects the country. They also control government spending and have the power to approve or reject presidential appointments. This branch plays a crucial role in representing the people and ensuring their voices are heard in the law-making process, balancing power with the executive and judicial branches.
